Greg Smith's Memoir May Double His Goldman Sachs Salary

If we're to believe The New York Post, it appears the bidding war for ex-Golman Sachs executive and New York Times' op-ed writer Greg Smith's memoir is about to scratch the $1 million mark--roughly double Smith's salary while working for the Vampire Squid. The New York Post's Keith Kelly reported that editors are already chiming in that Smith's book deal is nearing the $1 million mark, but bear with us while we take Kelly's one-source reported story with a grain of salt. Another editor even told Kelly: “It could go either way... There’s some big upside potential as well as some downside", when asked if the number could be $1 million. Sounds flimsy right? And, yeah, murmurs of a $1 million book deal fits (almost too) nicely into the story of this man damning the empire and getting rewarded because of it.
